Internet file sharing programs are popular among college students. These programs work by allowing non-organizational users to access any local network where desired files are located. Because these types of file sharing programs tend to clog bandwidth, local users’ ability to access and use a local network is reduced. What ethical and social responsibilities does a university have in this situation? To whom do they have a responsibility? What guidelines might you suggest for university decision makers?

Steps that decision-makers can take
- Each student should have unique credentials that he/she can use to access their account only. It should be allotted by the university.

- No student should be able to breach the security and interfere with any other student's account.
